    The whole package only costs like $2
    The only time a pound of butter costs $2 (or maybe less, if I'm really lucky) is if it's on sale. :wistful sigh:

    Back on to the main topic--me.

      Sorry, $2 and change

      Though we shop at the bulk warehouses. The minimum you can buy is like 3pounds at once, and it's about $7.50 or so.

        Hmm...this one talks sense...though usually my use of margerine/butter is for grilled cheese, so the toaster'd not be an option some times, but nuking the entire stick, eh.... *contemplates*

        What the heck, the margerine I've got now is getting fuzzy anyway, I'll go for it.
        Just remember, only a few seconds. It takes less than a minute to turn a stick of butter into molten pain.

          Well, as I said above, mac & cheese requires 1/2 a stick per box.

          Chicken and Rice = 3/4 of a stick. (Half a stick for the rice (the spanish style yellow rice), and another tablespoon or so to cook the chicken in or it burns.)

          2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) to pan-cook a steak, or make a grilled cheese sandwich.

          Plus, there's side dishes... potatoes, garlic bread, white rice, corn on the cob. Usually require a little bit of butter.


          and that's not even including baked goods. lol
          I get by on 500ml of olive oil per month for all that. With steaks and such you oil the steak (not the pan) half an hour or so before you cook it.

            Half an hour before? Too long to wait, the whole steak only takes 6 minutes

            Oh and 500ml is about 34 tablespoons (little less). Be a little over 4 sticks of butter. Sounds about right.
